Abstract

Insects not only spread diseases to humans and affect the quality of life or health, but also affect food factories’ operation. Therefore, the identification of various types of insects becomes extremely important in epidemic prevention.

The ultimate purpose of this study is to establish an insect species identification system, which can be divided into two main parts, object detection and insect species identification. To begin with, YOLO-v4 deep learning model is used to detect insects in the entire image which is produced by shooting the sticky traps. Then, the regional image of a single insect is extracted through the bounding box generated by YOLO-v4. Finally, the GoogLeNet Inception-v4 deep learning model is used to identify a species of insect in the regional image. Also, in order to improve the accuracy, image processing will be carried out before inputting the image into the model. Additionally, a combined model will be used to solve the confusion caused by the species identification model for some species look alike.

In the final results of this study, the recall value of the object detection model is 96%, and the accuracy rate of the species identification model is 87.1%.
